The saga continues and has no intention of stopping. We still talk about the situation Piastres. The Australian, with his market movements, made the Formula One summer break absolutely thrilling. In fact, although his landing in McLaren seems to be certain, the last word has not yet been said.
Piastri, the future is still uncertain
Let's be clear: after the announcement of Alonso in Aston Martin, Alpine immediately set off the next day sheltered with Oscar Piastri. However, the Australian driver via a tweet on the same evening he became an F1 driver, he denied that next year he will be at the helm of the Alpine. Going into the details of that communication, it was discovered that Piastri actually has already reached an agreement in principle with McLaren. Woking team in fact communicated to Ricciardo the decision to terminate the employment relationship, before the expiry of his contract.
McLaren-Alpine, the CRB intervenes
Although, to date, McLaren is still waiting to place Daniel Ricciardo to announce Piastri, in the last hours there is another problem with holding court. According to what is reported by AutoHebdo, la FIA Contract Recognition Board, the only body responsible for certifying the validity of agreements between drivers and teams in F1, declared the contract stipulated between McLaren and Piastri valid. The CRB however, on the other hand, also validated the contract which the Alpine used to be able to announce, on that fateful August 2, Oscar Piastri as Alonso's replacement.
And now the court takes over
The question arises: what now? What happen? The word belongs to the court because it alone a legal procedure will be able to determine who is right or wrong within this operation. Oscar Piastri's future is still heavily in the balance.
